It probably blew him away - 30,000 3-1 win he is thinking “this is the best thing that’s ever happened to me but how do I get into this side”

If Vic had any doubts about the project he's joined, they were blown away today. Full house rocking and the team rocked with them.

He has some catching up to do, but if he cant get up to want to be a part of squad and this club after today he shouldn't be here. If he is the player he looks he fits into what we want, he should feel like he just won the lottery.

Training will be fun this week, players will be hard to hold down and all are busting a bollock to be a starter.

This is what Robins has said:

“He is a versatile player who can play across the midfield area, but predominantly central, and is technically adept too with pace and energy. He’s a young player with loads of ability. And I think the supporters are going to love him, so there’s a lot of quality there.”

Well, that’s what he said about Yasin Ayari, anyway. My point is, there’s a lot of excitement about the kid and for good reason. But he has a lot to prove and he has to show it first - far more experienced/established players would struggle to break into this side at the moment.

He definitely goes in for Eccles - Sheaf is the better player and he’s not replacing O’Hare

Yes they were effective yesterday but more often than not both Sheaf and Eccles in the team is too defensive, and they are very similar players, with Sheaf having the edge in defence, strength and progressive forward play….

I would imagine after a short while Eccles will be a Sheaf back up

Trouble wasn't skill levels for Ayari it was getting up to pace with the championship. He'd only played 30 odd games of men's football. Must have been a bit of a shock to his system.

Torp will have to adjust but has a lot more experience of 1st team football. Glad we have options so we can bed him in gradually.

In fairness to Ayari there’s certainly a player there his 20 minutes v Norwich was outstanding but we need more than polishing up someone else’s one day star we are beyond that now. but good luck to him.

A song for him's gonna be difficult - His surname may as well be 'Orange' or 'Silver' for all I can think of anything rhyming with 'Torp'.

Yes, only 9 goals in the last two games. Just think how many it might have been otherwise.

After he'd put pen to paper and shaken MR's hand, he was so overcome with emotion that he cried so much his face was wet.

No more from me.
